Is it spelled website or Web site?

By KJ

Either spelling is correct. The Wall Street Journal spells it Web site. The one word form, website, is a popular choice among webmasters as well. Something to keep in mind, though, is that more and more people are favoring the one word spelling, much like the increasing preference of email over the other forms E-mail and e-mail.

When it comes down to it, it really doesn't matter which form you choose. I chose website for StarWarsSelect.com simply because I think that form looks better. The bottom line is pick one of the two forms and spell it that way consistently throughout your entire site.
